Aura Rose - Artist
Statement
I am an artist who is passionate about helping to build a more
sustainable world. I try to re-use, re-cycle and re-purpose found
objects into unique expressions of art.
Archetypes or images that appeal to the collective unconscious
inspire me to explore the mystery of form by conjuring up original
ideas from the depths of my experiences.
The vibrant presence in people and plants strangely affect our
mood. Intuition plays a major role in bringing forth the “Spirit
Portraits” in my paintings of people and their pets.
I created my Abundance Goddess Sculptures to evoke an
artifact-like quality. Each Goddess piece represents a contemporary
image. Each one incorporates hidden meanings suggested by their
figural curves.These goddesses are meant to spark creativity, invoke fertility
and awaken within oneself the deeper mysteries of the
universe.
The “YogaWave Infinity” Goddess meditates atop a cresting wave.
Her figure-eight shape of infinity symbolizes abundance.
The “Venus Mermaid Riding the Wave” Abundance Goddess embodies
one’s ability to stand tall upon the wave-like depths of our
emotions.
The “BP Oil Spill Mermaid” was conceived as a thought-provoking
protest.
I share with the viewer the wild curiosities of a winding path
through majestic mountains on “The Road to Taos” in this continuing
series.

“Descansos”, one of the subjects from
this series, are unique roadside “Remembrances” from this area.
They are constructed by locals to commemorate their loved ones
who died by the roadside.
Aura Rose exhibits in galleries, shows and has sold her work to
clients from many countries.
